A friend of mine was a cadet, and despite my social security number being the highest one in the class, there were over half a dozen cadets ahead of me. My friend wanted the same domicile as me and he got it a whole month before me because of his cadet status.

Your QOL will be better if you go to another regional vs. Cadet/Non-Cadet Status at SkyEast. Seriously, go elsewhere.

I'd rather stay up until 0200 than show at 0600 too. But that's just me.

You must've gone to UND. Take all the BS the recruiters spew with a grain of salt.
